The UK Government has published a list of companies that have signalled their intention to apply to the new UK CCS competition.

Publication of the list is aimed at encouraging further discussion within the CCS industry to support collaboration between companies and any interested suppliers.

The list covers companies that have indicated that they will lead a bid and not all companies that may be involved in that bid. It is not a list of applicants – the closing date for bids remains 3 July.

Over the coming weeks DECC will continue to hold meetings with potential bidders to ensure that Government and Industry continue to work together and bidders can submit their best bids possible.

DECC will also be making bidder documentation available in the coming weeks.
